BACKGROUND

Immunity is the defense mechanism of human body. It is the ability that human body recognizes and eradicates any of the foreign objects (virus, bacteria and so on) from the external, processes the senescent, injured, dead or denatured body cells, and recognizes and processes the mutant cells and cells infected by virus in human body. With accelerating pace of modern life, continuously increasing work pressure, unbalanced diet, insufficiency sleep, lack of exercise and so on are easy to cause low immunity in people. Body with low immunity is easy to be infected or get cancer and the immune system cannot play the role of protection normally. In this case, the body is easy to be infected by bacteria, virus, fungi and so on, and therefore the most direct manifestation of low immunity is easy to get sick. Due to frequent sickness, consumption of body is aggravated, symptoms such as weak constitution, malnutrition, listlessness, fatigue, loss of appetite, sleep disorder and so on often occur. Illness, injections and medication become routine, and it takes a long time to recover from sick every time. In addition, the recurrent illness, such as recurrent cold, recurrent tonsillitis, recurrent asthma, recurrent bronchitis, recurrent pneumonia and recurrent diarrhea, in a long term, will not only lead to poor physical and mental development, but also induce serious diseases.

People's living standard has increased significantly in recent years, and consumption concept and health concept of people have changed a lot. In order to avoid the adverse effects of unhealthy, people pay more and more attention to the use of nutraceuticals. Currently, the health care foods for enhancing immunity are mainly supplements with vitamins and minerals, and most of them are in the form of oral liquid. Oral liquid has disadvantages of inconvenience of carrying, poor stability and short storage time.

Experimental Example 1: Immunity Enhancing Test

The enhancement of immunity function is evaluated by four aspects including cellular immune function, humoral immune function, monocyte-macrophage function and NK cell activity. The test sample is regarded as having a function of enhancing immunity if any two aspects show positive results.

1. Test sample: the powder formulation prepared in Example 3. 2. Experimental animals: BALB/C inbred strain mouse, male, 18 to 22 g of each mouse. The mice were adoptive fed for a week and divided into groups (12 per group) randomly according to their body weights.

3. Grouping and Time of Administration of the Test Sample

Test animals were divided into 4 groups, i.e., a control group (administrated with same amount of distilled water) and 3 treatment groups including low-dose group, medium-dose group and high-dose group, wherein the treatment groups were given 5 times (166.67 mg/kg), 10 times (333.33 mg/kg) and 30 times (1000 mg/kg) of the human recommended amount of the test sample, respectively, three repetitions per dose. The test sample was given for 30 days.

4. Experiment Methods and Results 4.1 Effect of the Test Sample on the Body Weight of Mice

TABLE 1 Effect of the test sample on the body weight of mice Original Weight Final Weight Group (average ± standard (average ± standard (g/kg · BW) deviation) deviation) Control Group 17.24 ± 1.70 25.71 ± 2.13 Low-dose Group 16.19 ± 2.33 27.14 ± 1.26 Medium-dose Group 16.44 ± 1.07 26.94 ± 1.22 High-dose Group 17.13 ± 1.76  25.3 ± 0.81

Table 1 showed that 30 days after the administration of test sample at different doses orally, the weight of the mice in three treatment groups did not show significant differences compared with that of the control group (P>0.05), indicating that the test sample was safe.

4.2 Effect of the Test Sample on Spleen/Body Weight Ratio of Mice

TABLE 2 Effect of the test sample on spleen/body weight ratio of mice Group (g/kg · BW) Spleen/Weight ratio (%) P Control Group 0.33 ± 0.020  — Low-dose Group 0.43 ± 0.057** 0.0002 Medium-dose Group 0.41 ± 0.063** 0.0012 High-dose Group 0.42 ± 0.056** 0.0004

Table 2 showed that 30 days after the administration of test sample at different doses orally, the spleen/body weight ratios of three treatment groups were increased significantly, showing a significant difference compared with that of the control group (P<0.01).

4.3 Transformation Experiment of ConA-Induced Mouse Lymphocyte Cells (MTT Method)

(1) Preparation of spleen cells suspension. Spleen was removed under sterile condition and placed in Hanks solution. The spleen was snipped into pieces by a tweezers to prepare a single cell suspension, which was passed a 200-mesh screen. The cells were washed with Hanks solution twice through 10 min centrifugation (1000 rpm/min) each time. The cell suspension was suspended in the complete medium and the cell density was adjusted to 3×10⁶/ml after counting the number of viable cells by trypan blue staining.

(2) Spleen cell proliferation test. Each of the cell suspension was divided into two parts and added into 24-well plate, 1 mL per well. ConA solution (final concentration of 7.5 μg/mL) was added into one well, and the other well was set as the control. Cells were incubated in an incubator for 72 h. MTT method was used to measure the absorbance OD value of each well.

The proliferation function of lymphocytes is calculated by subtracting the OD value of the control well from the well added ConA. The statistical results were shown in FIG. 2.

The results in FIG. 2 showed that, 30 days after the administration of test sample at different doses orally, compared with the control group, the low-dose group showed no significant difference on ConA-induced lymphocyte transformation (P>0.05), while the medium-dose group and high-dose group improved the ConA-induced lymphocyte transformation, showing significant differences compared with that of the control group (P<0.05).

4.4 Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity (DTH)

Dinitrofluorobenzene-induced mouse DTH (ear swelling assay)

(1) Preparation of DNFB solution (1% of dinitrofluorobenzene)

(2) Sensitization: the fur on abdomen of each mouse was shaved by barium sulfate at an area about 3×3 cm², 50 μL DNFB solution was applied evenly to induce hypersensitivity.

(3) Development and measure of DTH: 5 days later, DNFB solution was applied evenly on both sides of the right ear of the mice for stimulation. The mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation 24 h later. Two ears were cut off, and a piece with diameter of 8 mm was taken by a puncher and weighted.

Results: DTH level was determined by mass differences between the left ear and the right ear, which was shown in Table 3.

TABLE 3 DTH levels of each group Group Mass difference between left ear (g/kg · BW) and right ear (mg ‰) P Control Group 17.09 ± 3.49 — Low-dose Group 15.65 ± 3.81 0.41 Medium-dose Group 14.41 ± 2.00 0.06 High-dose Group 14.54 ± 2.11 0.08

Table 3 shows that, there was no significant mass differences between left ear and right era between three treatment groups and the control group (P>0.05), therefore the result was negative.

4.5 Antibody-Producing Cell Test (Modified Jerne's Slide Method)

(1) Preparation of spleen cells suspension. The mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation 4 to 5 days after SRBC immunization. Spleen was removed and prepared into spleen cells suspension. The cell density was adjusted to 5×10⁶ cell/mL.

(2) Plaque assay. The surface culture medium was dissolved, placed in 45° C. water bath and mixed with the same amount of 2×Hanks solution (pH of 7.2). The medium was divided into aliquot in test tubes, 0.5 mL per tube. 50 μL of 10% SRBC and 20 μL of spleen cells suspension were added into the tube, mixed homogenously and rapidly. The mixture was poured on a glass slide with a thin layer of agarose. Control slide was prepared in parallel. After solidification, the glass slides were placed (upside down) in a slide box and incubated for 1.5 h. The statistic results of hemolytic plaque were shown in FIG. 3.

FIG. 3 showed that, 30 days after the administration of the test sample at different doses orally, compared with the control group, the plaque numbers of the low-dose group and medium-dose group have no significant difference (P>0.05), while the plaque number of the high-dose group increased significantly, showing a significant difference (P<0.05).

4.6 NK Cell Activity Assay (Lactate Dehydrogenase Assay)

Passage of target cell (YAC-1 cell): before the experiments, target cells were subcultured and cell conditions were adjusted.

The preparation method for spleen cells suspension was the same as that of 4.3. Cell viability was above 95% based on trypan blue staining. The density of the separated spleen cells suspension was adjusted to 2×10⁷ cell/mL.

NK cell activity assay: 100 μL of target cells and 100 μL of effector cells (effector cells:target cells=50:1) were added into 96-well plate. Spontaneously releasing well contained 100 μL of target cell and 100 μL of culture medium, while maximally releasing well contained 100 μL of 1% NP40 or 100 μL of 2.5% Triton. Each experiment has three repetitions. The cells were incubated in an incubator for 4 hours. Thereafter, the culture plate was subjected to a 5 min low-speed centrifugation and 100 μL of suspension from each well was transferred to a flat-bottom 96-well plate. OD value of each well at 490 nm was measured by LDH assay kit. NK cell activity was calculated by the average value of the three repeat wells in each group, and the results were shown in FIG. 4. Formula for calculating NK cell activity was as follows:

NK cell activity (%)=(OD value of reaction well−OD value of spontaneously releasing well)/(OD value of maximally releasing well−OD value of spontaneously releasing well)

FIG. 4 showed that, 30 days after the administration of the test sample at different doses orally, compared with the control group, the NK cell activity of the low-dose group and medium-dose group has no significant difference (P>0.05), while the NK cell activity of the high-dose group showed significant difference (P<0.05).

4.7 Phagocytosis Experiment of Mouse Abdominal Macrophage on Chicken Red Blood Cell (Drop-Slide Method)

Activation of mouse macrophage. 4 days before the experiment, 0.2 mL of 2% sheep red blood cells were injected to the abdomen of each mouse. The mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation. 4 mL of Hanks solution containing calf serum was injected into the abdomen of each mouse and the abdominal macrophages were washed out by gently massage of the abdomen 20 times. A small outlet was cut on the abdominal wall, 2 mL of abdominal washing liquid was sucked out by a dropper. 0.5 mL of abdominal washing liquid was pippetted to the tube containing 0.5 mL of 1% chicken red blood cell suspension and mixed evenly. 0.5 mL of the mixture was added into the agarose circle on a glass slide. The slide was incubated in an incubator for 20 min. The non-adhered cells were rinsed off by physiological saline as soon as the incubation finished. The cells were fixed by methanol for 1 min and stained by Giemsa for 15 min. Thereafter, the slide was rinsed and dried. The percentage of phagocytosis and phagocytic index were counted under a microscope with 40× magnification. The results were shown in FIG. 5. Number of macrophages was counted under oil immersion lens, and there were 100 cells were counted on each slide. The formula for calculating percentage of phagocytosis and phagocytic index were as follows:

Percentage of phagocytosis (%)=number of macrophage containing chicken red blood cell/number of counted macrophage×100

Phagocytic index=total number of the swallowed chicken red blood cell/number of counted macrophage

FIG. 5 showed that, 30 days after the administration of the test samples at different doses orally, compared with the control group, the percentage of phagocytosis and phagocytic index of low-dose group and medium-dose group have no significant differences (P>0.05), while the percentage of phagocytosis and phagocytic index of the high-dose group showed significant differences (P<0.01).

5. Conclusion

5.1 The result of mouse lymphocyte transformation experiment is positive and the result of delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction is negative.

5.2 The result of antibody-producing cell test is positive, indicating that the result of humoral immune function test is positive.

5.3 The result of phagocytosis experiment of mouse abdominal macrophage on chicken red blood cell is positive, indicating that the result of monocyte-macrophage function test is positive.

5.4 The result of lactate dehydrogenase assay is positive, indicating that the result of NK cell activity is positive.

In these four aspects, cell immune function, humoral immune function, monocyte-macrophage function and NK cell activity tests, when two of tests show positive results, it is concluded that the test sample has a function of enhancing immunity. The results of the experiments show that the test sample significantly improves the transformation of lymphocyte cell (cell immune function), the antibody production (humoral immune function), phagocytosis of abdominal macrophage on chicken red blood cell and NK cell activity, showing significant differences in comparison with that of control group.
